But do we want them here? I’m torn. I’d love to onboard my extended family but I see what they post and engage with and sometimes think it’s better to leave them in the trad SM mental asylum than bring them and their troubles here 🫤

Just because you bring them here, doesn't mean you need to follow them.

People were much more "normal" online even just a decade ago. Years of constant engagement with manipulative algos is a hell of a drug. Gotta break free at some point

I mostly agree, but at this point it’d be like showing a crack addict a clean house and saying “isn’t this better?” They’ll either leave or bring it with them.

Maybe I’m just blackpilled on saving people…

Why would we want to blast what we are up to into the ether without any way of ever deleting it?

Nostr really is terrible as a social network. It just seems super duper dangerous.

Say anything nasty here, then your country suddenly turns into a authoritarian shithole, like the UK, Germany and France, and you get raided and thrown in jail for wrongthink.

Try to be anonymous or pseudonymous? Good look keeping that up for a year without ever accidentally posting something that doxxes your entire identity.
